* Shift away from mid-range shots, with a focus on three-pointers and close-range finishes
* Top 4 winning-records out of the sample years were the 2018-2021 seasons, with the NBA Championship won in 2021
* 2013 and 2014 seasons in bottom three of winning-records out of the sample years
* The Bucks led the NBA in points per game in 2019 and 2020
* Reduction of shots taken past the three-point line

Interest was expressed in looking at our franchise player, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and his shot-charts from the 2021 season to present. It is my understanding that we wanted to see how Giannis has been performing since our last championship win in the 2021 season. As you can see in the graphics, Giannis has been performing at a high-level of play for the last 5 seasons. The NBA reports that Giannis is currently 2nd in points-per-game, at a whopping 30.4 PPG. This aligns with the graphics, with 2025 showing large and concentrated amounts of green. As you can also see, Giannis has decreased his three-point attempts and focused more on in-the-paint scoring. This is due to the acquiring of highly skilled three-point shooters, such as Damian Lillard and Gary Trent Jr. With successful shooters to support him, Giannis is able to use his size and speed to score in the paint. The statistics support that Giannis is one of the best players on the Milwaukee Bucks and he should be compensated and supported as such.
